Abstract

We study various measure theories using the classical approach and then compute the Hausdorff dimension of some simple objects and self-similar fractals. We then develop a nonstandard approach to these measure theories and examine the Hausdorff measure in more detail. We choose to study Hausdorff measure over any other measures since it is well-defined for all sets, and widely used in many different areas in mathematics, physics, probability theory, and so forth. Finally we generate a particular set and compute its upper and lower Hausdorff dimension. We compare our set with box-counting dimension and other well-known fractal behaviors to analyze the set in a greater detail.
